Here?sa bright and attractive collection of twenty traditional Christmas songs andcarols intended for the elementary pianist or keyboard player. The notation is kept as simple as possible and musical elements such as dynamics,articulations, phrasing and slurs are omitted completely. The piano part,which also includes chords, is printed in large type.It's an ideal item for schools, and especially piano teachers for some seasonal sight-reading for students. The chords are printed below the stave rather than above, to allow space for fingering suggestions. Fingerings are omitted during repeated passages or when the fingering is considered obvious.

Elementarypianists rarely have the opportunity of playing in an ensemble. The mainfeature of Colin Kirkpatrick?s Really Easy Christmas Collectionis that it?s fully compatible with the Optional Instrumental Pack, a setof instrumental parts transposed for a selection of popular instruments. It is available here: https://www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/21394520 Whilethe Optional Instrumental Pack is primarily intended to play along withthe piano, the arrangements use flexible instrumentation and can be used entirely on their own without the keyboard part, thus giving you extra flexibility.

The arrangements in Christmas: Songs on the Black Keys are great for new beginner piano students who can read using finger numbers on the black keys, but aren\'t ready to make the jump to reading with all alpha notes. For example, songs like \"O Christmas Tree\" introduce the B and F keys, but keeps the rest of the fingers on the black keys.

Every song has an illustration of the hand position. Notes are color-coded by hand-- green for right hand and red for left hand. Illustrations of each hand are also included at the start of each song which is vital for those pre-school kids that still have trouble telling right from left. The result is a set of songs attractive and playable for beginners of all ages.

Lyrics included with most songs. Some songs contain religious content. Check my profile for the secular version.

26 pages, landscape. Easy for pre-readers and beginners.

Preschool. Finger numbers. Pre-staff / prestaff, pre-reader / prereader, pre-reading / prereading. Beginner. Late beginners.
